It is all be finished now. I remember a while back going up the tower to
service the radio gear for security, the smell of the tobacco was everywere
and in the tower were 1000,s of old WWII gas masks still in the cardboard
boxes with the string to hang around your neck. When it eventualy closes
it will be a great place for UE

Image of Ogdens Factory in Kensington, Ogdens makers of St Bruno Pipe Tobacco, I have been informed is to close, I wonder what that'll happen to the Building.

drone-pilot Hi.

I think you will find that Ogdens head office (picture above) was on Boundary Lane off West Derby Road and not Kensington as you say. Production was also at this location with the factory backing on to West Derby Rd.
The large hoarding was on West Derby Rd. I lived with the smell of tobaco most of my young life.
